Description
The MK52 Vibration Control Workstation with more ergonomic comfort is designed specifically for ultra-low natural frequency applications. The system utilizes Minus K negative stiffness vibration isolators in order to provide a compact, passive Vibration Isolation Workstation with ultra-low natural frequencies, higher internal structural frequencies, and excellent vertical and horizontal isolation efficiencies. The MK26 has also been upgraded to provide much better user comfort and additional leg space.
Minus K isolators, they are completely passive and require NO AIR or ELECTRICITY. There are no computers, compressors or air lines needed or that can breakdown. Minus K manufactures vibration isolators that employ Negative-Stiffness technology in low-frequency vibration isolation. These mechanisms compress the internal springs, flexures and columns to completely mechanical vibration. Adjusted to a 1/2 Hz natural frequency, the workstation achieves about 93% isolation efficiency at 2 Hz, 99% at 5 Hz and 99.7% at 10 Hz.
The MK52 Series can be configured for a wide variety of applications and customized with most of our vibration isolation workstation accessories. Standard sizes up of 8’ x 4’ and custom sizes can be made.
The MK52 Series offers the ultimate performance for a wide range of instruments, such as , lasers, optics, analytical balances, cell injection, confocal microscopes, patch clamping, optical microscopes, wafer probing, sensor calibration atomic force microscopes and other sensitive equipment in fields such as semiconductor processing, telecommunications, aerospace engineering, and medical research.
